Many S p e c i al Activities
And Courses Planned'
For 1934 Session
A wide range of courses and a
variety of special activities will be
offered by the Department of Speech
and General Linguistics in the Sum-
mer Session of; 1934, according to an
official announcement issued recent-
ly and now available at the office of
the Director of the Summer Session.
This department, which was cre-
ated when the Department of Speech
and the Department of General Lin-
guistics were merged in 1932, provides
instruction in all types of speaking,
reading, and dramatic courses, re-
search and experimental laboratory
work in many phases of the subject,
and for training of especially quali-
fied students to become teachers in
one or more of the divisions of the
field.
Among the special activities which
the department will have available
for its summer work in 1934 will be
a modern laboratory and a large
seminar room for the use of gradu-
ate groups. The Lydia Mendelssohn
Theater will be ready for all of its
classes in dramatic art and for its
major public productions and the
Laboratory Theater for its private
laboratory presentations.
All summer activities in dramatics,
both in courses and in the theater,
will be under the direction of Prof.
Thomas W. Stevens and Valentine B.
Windt, who has been in charge of
Play Production activities on the
campus during the past six years.
Alexander Wyckoff will conduct ad-
vanced work in stagecraft, and Miss
Evelyn Cohen will give a special cos-
tume course.
The Laboratory of General Lin-
guistics and Speech is equipped with
apparatus for the experimental in-
vestigation of problems in phonetics,
and with charts and models for the
study of the anatomy of the speech
organs. Emphasis is laid on both the
physical and physiological processes.

One of the many invaluable serv-
ices that the University Fresh Air
Camp has rendered to the thousands
of underprivileged children of Detroit
and Ann Arbor who attend the sum-
mer camp has been in teaching them
to swim.
Over the period of 13 years since
the camp was begun in 1919 it is
estimated that nearly 2,000 boys have
been taught swimming, or close to
one-half of the 4,500 who have been
at the camp. Swimming. is one of the
principal sports that is carried on
at the camp, the daily schedule call-
ing for a short dip before breakfast,
optional for the braver ones, a 45-
minute swim before lunch, and a
third long plunge in the lake late in
the afternoon.
It has been shown numerous times
that swimming is one of the most
healthy sports for general bodily de-
velopment and camp officials stress it
in this manner as they aim toward
developing children at the camp as
completely as possible in the short
time they are there. Many of them
come to the Patterson Lake location
without ever having been out of the
city, and the advantages which it
offers them are felt to be of greater
importance in the determination of
their future careers.
Careful supervision of the children
while they are in the water is exer-
cised. There are five life guards and
four instructors on duty at all times.
Camp leaders have explained that
learning to swim not only gives these
hundreds of boys protection in case
of emergency but also gives them a
feeling of achievement "so necessary
to character development." In addi-
tion they are taught many facts of
boating, such as how to get into and
out of a boat, the maximum number
allowed in safety, how to use the oars,
